January 14, 2026 The little black cat that I trapped going through the garbage at Food Lion HAS BEEN ADOPTED!!!
This adorable tiny cat with a BIG personality went to an amazing family today! Dad + 6 older kids was “purrfect” for Lioness! No doubt, Lioness will entertain them as much as they will entertain her!
I could not be happier with this great match! We will all miss Lioness at FURR and her sweet & playful nature, but this is what it’s all about folks!
Trash dump kitty hits the lottery! My heart is so happy right now!

September 22, 2025 Last week I was going by Food Lion in Hampstead late one night when I saw a little black kitten rummaging through some trash!
I quickly ran to FURR, got a trap & within about 3 milaseconds, I had her in my trap….she was TINY. She was quiet as a mouse.
Back at FURR, all I had left was our “people” bathroom & that’s where she would have to go.
I reached into the trap to scruff her & bring her out and she started making air biscuits while I held her by the neck!
Well, this is good news! She was actually thrilled that I was holding her & when I put her down, she started rubbing my legs.
She voraciously ate a can of kitten food & I began treating her for fleas & worms, etc.
I named her “Lioness” since she came from Food Lion & looked like a little black panther.
Needless to say, she is precious, adorable, sweeeet & only a teensy shy.
Someone will be VERY blessed to have this baby in their home!!!
